The Loschwitzer Street is a major arterial road between the Dresden city center and Blasewitz , standing at the many listed buildings.

description

Loschwitzer Straße has always been the most important street that leads from Blasewitz to Dresden city center. The first expansion took place in the 19th century, followed by a further expansion in 1863, when Blasewitz gained new importance as a residential suburb of Dresden. It forms the continuation of Blasewitzer Strasse at Königsheimplatz and leads to the Blue Wonder (Loschwitzer Bridge). It crosses Forsthausstraße, Alemmannenstraße, Lothringer Weg, Vogesenweg, Mendelssohnallee, Prellerstraße, Regerstraße and Justinenstraße. At the eastern end is the traffic-calmed central stop Schillerplatz of the Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe , the next 50 meter long section from the intersection with the converging Naumannstraße to Schillerplatz bears the name of Naumannstraße.

traffic

A horse-drawn tram has been running here since September 26, 1872, followed by the electric tram from 1893. The route is still in operation today. There are stops at the intersection of Lothringer Weg and at the intersection of Prellerstrasse.

  • No. 4 (villa): The house was completed in 1902 according to designs by Heino Otto in the neo-baroque style with echoes of Art Nouveau. The facade is plastered with stuccoed Art Nouveau ornaments by H. Hahn decorate the house. The building is asymmetrically structured, with a triangular gable with a stair tower on the side decorating the facade facing the street. Arched gables form the upper end of the side facades facing the garden. Floral shapes determine the Art Nouveau ornamentation.
  • No. 7 (Villa Ebstein): The villa with its garden and enclosure is a listed building.
  • No. 9 (Villa Friedland): The house was completed in the early days . It is one of the controversial buildings in the villa suburb, as it was demolished in 1993 despite citizen protests. The demolition of the old villa is an example of the danger that threatens the historic building fabric if it is not listed.
  • No. 15a (office villa): Gerd Fuchs & Partner built a three-storey building complex with a flat hipped roof. The complex consists of four "cubes pushed apart", which emerge like a risk on the facade of the house. Deep cuts between the four block-like protruding structures characterize the external appearance of the house.
  • No. 19 (Villa Freisleben): Built in Art Nouveau style in 1916 based on a design by Hans Paulick. The listed building was also the seat of the only gold leaf brawl in the GDR, from 1972 to 1990 VEB Blattgold .
  • No. 20 (Villa Agnes): The villa and parts of the enclosure are under monument protection.
  • No. 21 (Villa St. Petersburg): Robert Henry Lüdicke, once the tsar's court gardener, had the villa built in 1872 in the historicism style as a retirement home. The listed building, which was renovated in 1995, is used by the IBB as a private all-day school.
  • No. 31 (Villa Kemmer): The villa was built in 1889 with Italian Renaissance forms in the style of the Nicolai school and some neo-baroque elements.
  • No. 33 (Villa Seidlitz): Woldemar von Seidlitz, Doctor of Philosophy, had the villa built in 1890 in the style of historicism. Oskar Zwintscher , Sascha Schneider , Robert Sterl and Max Liebermann were among his guests.
  • No. 34 (Villa Pietzsch): Dr. Richard Pietzsch, father of Martin Pietzsch , had the house built in 1864 and used it as a rural teaching and educational institution for boys, which is still reminiscent of a Latin inscription on the house. The portrait painter Emil von Hartitzsch lived in the villa since 1876
  • No. 36 (Villa Germania). The villa with its rear building and enclosure is a listed building.
  • No. 37 ( Villa Ilgen ): Martin Pietzsch , the son of the neighboring owner, designed the villa in 1891 based on the model of Greek temples. It was named after the later owner, the entrepreneur Ilgen, who bought it in 1904. After the villa was returned to the Ilgen heirs, it was renovated and is now the seat of the Hermann Ilgen Foundation .
  • No. 38 ( office and residential building ): The listed villa was built in the second half of the 19th century. The old building was restored in accordance with the preservation criteria and returned to its original state. The engineering office Michael Weiss und Partner from Aachen built a modern, cubic pavilion in the garden of the villa, which is characterized by the "transformed [n] classic [n] modernity" and has a "cubic building shape" that has been partially broken up.
  • No. 42 (Villa Sidonienhof): Hermann Sigismund Neumann , Prussian court garden director, had the listed villa built in the Tuscan country house style in 1890 .

  • No. 56 (Naumanns Palais): Johann Gottlieb Naumann , court music director and composer had the palace built at the end of the 18th century. In 1890 the palace was given an imposing tower as part of a renovation and expansion. The “Schiller-Galerie” shopping center is located on the site of the palace that was destroyed in the war. In 2001 a memorial stele made of sandstone and glass with the composer's name and year of birth and death was erected by the Loschwitz artist Detlef Schweiger. The glass elements are intended to be reminiscent of Naumann's compositions for the then new type of glass harmonica.
  • No. 58 ( Schubert House ): A listed residential and commercial building from the Wilhelminian era.
